Never Mistake a Queen for a Lapdog novel Chapter 944

Crystal, however, glared at Noreen with overt hostility.

When Noreen walked in, Crystal even made a show of leaning closer to Dylan.

Dylan promptly stood up, muttering an excuse about needing a smoke.

Crystal immediately followed him out, clearly intent on chasing after her ex-husband.

Someone gossiped, "So what's the deal with those two? Are they actually divorced or not?"

One of Crystal's friends scoffed haughtily, "It's just their little way of flirting. You guys wouldn't get it. Some couples are polite, and some just like to bicker."

She paused intentionally, shooting a pointed look at Noreen before adding, "They're still madly in love. Stop spreading rumors, otherwise some people might start getting ideas."

The jab was so glaringly directed at Noreen that she couldn't help but frown.

Suddenly, someone kicked Jude under the table.

He scrambled to speak up, staring directly at the woman. "Excuse me, I don't remember inviting you to my birthday party. Are you sure you're in the right room?"

The woman's face froze before she forced an awkward smile. "I came with Crystal."

"I didn't invite Crystal either."

This time, the woman couldn't even manage a fake smile.

But her shamelessness knew no bounds.

"Well, we're already here. Think of it as us bringing some extra life to the party. Surely Mr. Jude isn't going to kick us out?"

They were all high-society people. She figured Jude wouldn't cause a scene.

Unfortunately, she was dead wrong.

If she hadn't made those snide comments just now, Jude might have played nice.

But she just had to go and insult Noreen.

So she couldn't blame him for being ruthless.

"You nailed it. The door's right over there. Don't let it hit you on the way out."

The woman flushed crimson, ultimately storming out in utter humiliation.

"Ms. Gilmore, sit here. There's plenty of room." Jude clearly had an ulterior motive, deliberately seating Noreen right next to Seth.

He was banking on these two getting back together as soon as possible.

After all, if Noreen was happy, Seth was happy.
